For three decades, the man who called himself Prince Sultan Bin Khalid Al-Saud of Saudi Arabia lived a lavish life fueled by Rolex watches, Ferrari sports cars and designer clothing – but the veil used to conceal his real identity slipped on Friday when he was sentenced to 18 years in prison. His real name is Anthony Gignac, a 48-year-old Miami con man with a mixed personality disorder who was born in Bogota, Columbia – not Saudi Arabia as he so regularly claimed. Prosecutors say that Gignac has been arrested at least 11 times over the past 30 years for impersonating Saudi royalty, spending much of his time in and out of prison.

In contrast to her American actress grandmother's funeral, reportedly attended by hundreds of people including Princess Diana, this was more laid back with the groom even getting chucked in a swimming pool (Left) wearing suit and all. The newlyweds have a seven-month-old son called Balthazar. She is the daughter of Princess Caroline of Hanover and granddaughter of American actress Grace Kelly who became Princess of Monaco after marrying Prince Rainier III in April 1956.

Cynthia Day, 49, and Nathaniel Holmes, 63, checked in to the Bahía Príncipe Playa Nueva Romana on May 25 and were due to depart Thursday, the same day their bodies were discovered in a room reportedly with 'no signs of violence'.

New York community leaders reportedly stormed out of a closed meeting with US Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Wednesday after some felt 'revolted' when she criticized Donald Trump and the US. AOC held the close gathering in the Bronx borough with Community Board 11 members but proved too controversial for two military veterans at least. One of the issues that sparked a sickening feeling in some was when a Middle Eastern member of the Community Board 11 asked for her thoughts on the conflict in Yemen. Silvio Mazzella (pictured right in red), who served in the Vietnam War from 1966 to 1968, felt compelled to leave. He said: 'She knocks the country, she knocks the president. And that's not what America is about.'

The asking price is well above comparable homes in the area, which have sold for between $1.5million and $2million, but the couple say that they believe the mansion is as much of a piece of one-of-a-kind memorabilia as a home. 'I don't think you can quantify the intrinsic value of this home,' Mr. Recchia told the New York Times in an article announcing the sale.

JEFF POWELL IN NEW YORK: True to his promise, Eddie Hearn came as close to selling out Madison Square Garden as made no difference. That was made possible by a trans-Atlantic pilgrimage by thousands of Joshua fans. The promoter had been hoping for an invading force of 8,000 and it looked and sounded like more. We Brits have an infinite capacity for turning out in support of our sportsmen and women. As was overwhelming demonstrated in Madrid earlier this Saturday and will be again this summer for cricket and football world cups.
